Disney shelves Hyperion Wharf, Bowls a Strike on the Westside of Downtown Disney

While the construction walls are still up in the area formerly known as Downtown Disney’s Pleasure Island, the concept art for new construction has been removed and work has stopped on the area that was once destined to become Hyperion Wharf. For now that concept is on hold, if not on hiatus (the Disney word for dead a la Light Magic)

Tortuga Tavern, conflicting evidence ruins show

Update : It’s not that often, I’m made to eat my words so quickly… but check out this twitpic from @GDPInvestigator – http://twitpic.com/439m6g Looks like a new sign was installed in the last few days. Have to say that’s a vast improvement over what I complained about below. Anyone know if they’ve fixed the menu item issue

Dining Coupons at DL and WDW this holiday season

For the first time I can think of, you can bring a printed coupon to a Disney park restaurant and get 30% off for dining during the holidays. It’s only good during the “off” hours – clearly a way to spread out demand, and perhaps encourage sales that might otherwise not get made.

Two new Restaurants open in Downtown Disney – Pollo Campero and Fresh A-Peel

Downtown Disney must have a two-for-one special going on right now, because where they used to have one McDonalds restaurant, there are now two healthy quick service locations. The new restaurants are the first Pollo Campero location in Orlando and the first Fresh A-Peel location ever. They share the space previously occupied by Ronald and his pals.

Portobello at Downtown Disney Remakes its Image & Menu (plus a recipe!)

Those who were following my short tweetfest from Downtown Disney last night probably caught my mention of the new look, and lovely scent, of Portobello. The restaurant, which sits between Pleasure Island and the Downtown Disney Marketplace, has recently completed a transformation from the old stuffy ‘Yacht Club’ theme into an eatery reminiscent of the Italian countryside.

Morrocan Food!

Angela will laugh because I put the belly dancer first, but hey…it was pretty cool! In any case, here we are at Restaurant Marrakesh…the same place that I ate at with my family when we visited Disney World nearly 20 years ago. At that time, the restaurant was still relatively new.
